HAMPTON BEACH, NH

- 05/29/2013 –

Hampton Beach has been named one of the Top 6 Beaches in the country based on a new article by the Weather Channel and Weather.com.

This is the first year that a New Hampshire Beach has made the Weather.com list of favorite beaches, a list that was compiled by readers of Weather.com.

Among the things that people liked: the small but lively beach scene, which includes more than 80 free concerts, fireworks shows and the sand castle contest, which draws master sand sculptors from all over the world to the beach each summer. Hampton Beach State Park was also one of four beaches nationwide honored for having clean water quality in 2011. This designation was actually given to Hampton Beach four years in a row.

The New Hampshire Seacoast is a very special and inviting place that includes great restaurants, lodging and shopping, along with a wonderful quality of life. We represent Hampton, Hampton Falls, Rye, Seabrook and North Hampton. Each of these communities has its own character and its special attractions.

The Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce is always available to assist in any way we can. The Chamber represents its member businesses and works with the various communities that we represent, supporting their activities and programs throughout the year.

Please feel free to visit our administrative office at One Lafayette Road in Hampton or the Seacoast Visitor's Center at One Sixty Ocean Boulevard.
